Some day I will catch up to the current episode. Haha. I guess I have e the luxury of being able to listen quite a bit during my work day so will get there. Enjoying it though !
Okay - last comment because this confused me on the AARPG podcast. How do ammo dice work with a ROF 1 weapon ? They can use one, but don’t they then roll again to determine ammo spent ? Seems weird …
The amount of ammo used is equal to 1 plus whatever was rolled on all the ammo dice total with the attack roll. ie lets say you attack with 1 ammo die, and roll a 4 on the ammo die. That means 5 rounds were shot. You can roll an amount of ammo dice up to the ROF of the weapon, but not more than the number of rounds left in the weapon minus one. So capacity matters with rof also. ie If a rof 1 weapon only has 1 round left, no ammo dice may be used. Not sure if this clears it up.
@@DorkDayAfternoon Ah okay. So if it’s a ROF 1 (let’s say bolt action) you can use one ammo die and (assuming you have the rounds available.). You roll a 4 on the ammo die. So that’s one for the main dice plus 4 from the ammo roll for 5 total spent rounds ? Narratively it’s like you are racking and shooting racking and shooting etc 5 times ?
Love that you keep the rules discussion and questions in there as it really helps someone like me who is going to be running it. You do a great job as referee by the way.
@@DorkDayAfternoon And believe me, it helps so much when you are trying to learn as a third party listener. I would have some of the same questions the players have (especially this early in )
Thank you! Once we started a patreon thats what we used it for. Increasing the quality of our audio equipment. Plus learning as we go how to produce it.
And sorry one more comment - are you still playing Twilight or have you moved onto another game? (I assume these were recorded awhile ago ?) it looks like in the playlist you are still playing ?
@@DorkDayAfternoon Got it. So if you already have one or two from the first roll, you already know that the reliability will be dropping hit or miss with the re-roll (and potentially more if more ammo dice are re-rolled) ?
Every time I wonder if maybe the storyline has plateaued, this crew comes up with yet another jaw-dropping roleplay moment. Utterly aghast/delighted at how you guys sculpted the Showdown at the V-Hole into something epic. Probably broke into my top-3 moments of the whole campaign. *Shia LaBeouf standing ovation*
Oh Adelbert. He also made an appearance in our game. I suspect he’s an SOB no matter what the scenario. In our game he’s looking for the Black Madonna and enter that module into our session.
I’m late to show but as a person suffering from PTSD I wanted to share a story. My PTSD has been loud lately and while at Target today, I found myself with a tube of Super Glue in my basket because I felt as if someone really needed it. Thankfully I realized it was the PCs in this show before I bought it and I put it back on the shelf. I wanted to thank you guys for having the PTSD announcement in your shows as it does help remind me that this is just a game and any of the PTSD symptoms that arise from the show are not a real threat. Great show and keep up the great work.
Thanl you for sharing your story. I am glad in recent years it has become more acceptable in our society for people to be open about struggles with PTSD, especially among the Veteran community. It is an issue that is near and dear to us. -Adam
"I knew he was a biter" "Oh he's not a biter, he just does that when you pet him" As a service tech whos always in peoples houses: two things i hear all the time is "oh he's never bitten anyone" and "thats the first time he's ever bitten someone" 😂
@@Skanah_ Bentley LITERALLY never bit anyone. When he barked at people coming in the house, it was because he would try and lead them to the treaters. Which he would point to with his tail. He would only "growl" at my wife and I when we rubbed his belly. Then he would cry and whimper when we stopped. -Adam
Emmett is going to be very upset when he finds out the fireworks he ordered wasn't delivered but instead crashed en route. fourth of july is ruined now.
If you'll recall last episode when Burce said to Murph something to the effect of we better not poke around too much here or two people will own my ass instead of one 😂 turns out it was Murph instead of Bruce but that guys a prophet so far
I would just like to point out that the state of Kentuckiana is potentially in violation of the Non-Proliferation Treaty of 1968, and that serious sanctions may be called for.
nuclear weapons are actually very hard to set off. The one at Tybee Island that was jettison from a B52 is still there (in theory intact) after over 60 years
I love the detail that the M60 stats have it has one point of reliability lower than most other weapons because by that time period the M60 had gotten a bad reputation for malfunctioning. What I understood was that it was mostly because the ones that were still in service had been beat to shit and no amount of maintenance could keep up with their age
That sneaking segment was the most tense part of the whole series do far for me. Most other tense segments it felt like everyones life was in their own hands but this time around it felt like all the weight was just on those sneak roles and it could all fall apart any time. Also holy shit that flashback totally shocked me, and switching back to CONUS afterwards was *chefs kiss*
LT: "i know a guy, but i don't know that you want to owe him" *Always Sunny theme song plays, title of episode reads "the gang becomes indebted to the russian"*
"Imagine you're in a country where the authorities treat some people differently based on how they observe them" fucking laughed my ass off at that whole conversation 😂
emmetts old unit, the 25th infantry division has the nickname "tropic lightning." originally due to the design of their insignia, the name took on new meaning during the gulf war when Emmett strapped a car battery to Saddam's general's junk.
@@brianpolen2167 gotta represent. During my brief time in the army i served with the 25th also however i was with 4th brigade out of Anchorage Alaska rather than one of the brigades out of Hawai'i.
Nice ep. I started listening late but am now up to date after listening to an ep a day for a few weeks! Your play through has been very useful in rules interpretation and me running my own campaign at my rpg club. Thanks and keep up the good work....
Spc vs Cpl is essentially command vs not command. It isnt combat arms vs others. If you happen to be an E4 in an E5 slot and serving as a team leader in a medical unit, you are a corporal. It is a sign you are serving as a junior NCO. There are definitely more of them in combat arms though.
